ASSAD…. PERSIANS, TSARS AND “DRAGONS”:
Way back when, at the beginning of the conflict in Syria, I
gave my opinion of just how this all might end, given the West desire to no
longer be seen as a world leaders!
If you search this site, you will see my comments on how the
day would come that the Tsar and his Persian Allies, if the Tsar really has
such a thing, would decide if Assad stays or goes and if he goes, who would
replace him.
So, when I came across these two very well written articles,
I was compelled to go back and read what I posted over three years ago.
Yep… I was right!!!
Now, one of these stories brings up an excellent and important
point about Mr Assad.
He, like me, has always known he serves at the pleasure of
the Persians and the Persians decision to keep him in power is influenced by
the Tsar!
Does that mean he is willing to go upon request?
No!
Do the Persians and the Tsar understand that dilemma?
Yes!
As I said three years ago, when the time comes for Assad to “leave”,
he will not be asked to “go”!
He will wake up “dead!
He will most likely hear kind words being said over his
body, most likely at the barrel of a gun, and he will see whoever it was his
Masters chose to replace him standing next to his most loyal military leaders…who
actually work for the Persians!
The facts are these:
- Assad’s departure will be determined by
his Masters, even if his Masters decide to let the rebels succeed in
killing him thereby providing his government the rally cry to avenge his
death in a most merciless event…. One the West will only sit back and
watch.
- The future of the region no longer is
controlled by the West and in fact the influence factor is decreasing by
the day.
- Finally; the plans of the
Masters are flawed, as plans almost always are, by the fact they didn’t
take into account other potential “Masters” and the actions they are quietly
making.
Yes the region is changing and there is no doubt Assad will
not be part of that change, but as I said two days ago, relationships are being
forged and the most important ones are being made in closed rooms without the
Persians and the Tsar.
They may worry they are being made and they may even try to anticipate
what deals are struck, but in the end, they will have to wait to see just how
well their plan executed.
In ancient history…. Those who dreamed of sailing the world
and finding untold wealth were overcome by stories of Dragons and Sea Monsters…
so much so thee very maps they made depicted areas one dare not go!!!!!
Those days may soon be a reality once again!
